Memorial Day Tunic

 

Tunic Anthropologie (old, but check out some similars below!) || Legging Jeans Gap || Sandals Gap (old, but check out this year's similar pair - on sale!)

I really love all the patriotic holidays, but there's something about Memorial Day that just brings out the true American in me!  This red, white, and blue (okay, okay, and green) tunic is perfect for my Tuesday celebration of Memorial Day.

Grey Matters

AG Jeans Sadie Panel Tank || Gap Always Skinny Jeans (my favorite cut!) || Jack Rogers Georgica Jelly (an old color, but loving these on sale!) || Straw Stripe Tote (similar - and here's a bargain and a splurge, but come onnnn it's so cute!)

White on Stripes

 Pim + Larkin Grey Stripe Top from Piperlime (unavailable - bye Piperlime! - but similar for a bargain and similar at less of a bargain from J.Crew but it's linen.) || Gap Weekend Shorts (on sale!) || Converse Shoreline in Grey (although my eyes see "dusty olive green".. just saying! These are also on sale with free shipping from Nordstrom!)

& Another Lilly

Lilly Pulitzer Skirt (from an old After Party Sale, but loving the new "Tate" skirts!) || Gap Side Zip Boat Neck Tee (mine is actually a season old and v-necked, the new ones also come in stripes!) || Naturalizer Applause Flats

Confession: I'm really into skorts.  I bought this Lilly Pulitzer one from the After Party Sale last summer, but it quickly got too cold to wear it.  I'm so excited to finally have pulled it out of hibernation. ;)

Lilly for Target Review: Take 2

Lilly Pulitzer for Target Fan Dance Shift Dress || J.Crew Factory Denim Jacket || Jack Rogers Gold Navajo (but I'm digging these chambray and gold ones and these cork and gold ones and they're both such a steal! Off 5th has it going on right now.  These Jack Rogers Ballet Flats are under $50.)

Lilly for Target Review

 Lilly Pulitzer for Target "See Ya Later" Shift Dress (Sadly sold out pretty much instantly!) || Banana  Republic Rorie Wedges (Okay, I must do a quick pitch for these wedges - I hate heels.  I feel awkward and unbalanced, not to mention a little uncomfortable and pinched.  These wedges are none of that!)

I've been on the verge of posting these pictures for a few days, and every time I start a post I get a little embarrassed about how ridiculously excited I was for this line and say "Maybe you should calm down for a few days and then blog." Hahaha.  No.  Never going to happen, Kel.

Swingy and Springy

Holy moly - spring is here in Ohio, and it came in with ferocity.  Real ferocity.  Today is supposed to top out at a muggy ninety degrees.  This weather has me searching for some cool, swingy striped dresses.  Very cliche Kelly, but old favorites are old favorites for a reason.

Check out some of my favorite finds below!  Most are under $50 - I seriously have my eyes on this dress from Lulu's and this dress is a steal at under $25!

Love & Honor

Flutter Sleeve Shift Dress LOFT (old, but dying over these Loft shifts: one and two) || Two-tone Patent Ballet Flats Naturalizer (the comfiest! Dig around for some great classic styles. Also find this exact pair on 6pm.) || Crystal Venus Flytrap Necklace J. Crew || (My friend to the right doesn't know this blog exists*, but I asked and her dress is from Francesa's. I'm loving these right now!)

First off, let's start with ONE BIG apology for being so absent lately!  I realize I haven't blogged since spring break, and now here it is.. college graduation.  I am, sincerely, sorry that the time flew away so fast without a word, but it's been nice to really enjoy the last few weeks with my friends and roommates.
